Wil back in the radio mix?
Dr Mumbo’s spy in the Southern Cross Austrereo camp shares an interesting titbit with him.
Could Wil Anderson be set to make a triumphant return to radio?
Anderson – the front man and co producer of the ABC’s Gruen Planet – has, Dr Mumbo is told, been spending a fair bit of time at SCA’a offices lately.
Given that last week The Highway Patrol was axed and Anderson used to co-present the drivetime slot on SCA’s Triple M with Lehmo, could it be time for a triumphant return? Admittedly, last time round they were dropped by the network after the show didn’t rate.
So here’s an even more delicious theory… remember when Anderson and Adam Spencer successfully co-presented breakfast for the ABC’s Triple J? And remember how Spencer leaves his ABC breakfast slot at the end of the year?
And remember how SCA’s 2Day FM is currently renegotiating Kyle Sandilands contract?
Anderson and Spencer for 2Day FM. You heard it here first.
I can’t wait to hear Wil Anderson interview a Kardashian. That would make my life complete.

How about a station just plays his podcast instead.. Always recorded with high quality equipment, variety of guests(usually a maid wanting to make up the room) , often accompanied by a drink, or wils pain relief “Medicine” .. Just don’t expect any sponsors to last for more than 1 episode.. Would rate well though.. #FOFOP

Melbourne media are reporting that apparently Matt Tilley from Fox FM’s ‘Matt & Jo’ program will be part of a national Triple M Drive program next year. The Matt & Jo show on FOX is finishing up at the end of the year.

I saw WIl’s show on friday night at Dee Why RSL, and he spoke of a new radio show and to keep our ears open. His co star is Charlotte Clausen or something like that

Ahh the days of Wil and Adam on JJJ… gold.
Suddenly into my head rushed this horrific theme…. Denton, Denton, Denton, Denton (Andrew Denton woo).
My goodness, can you imagine a breakfast show where the intellect is higher than the volume.

I am so happpy to hear Ando is back on the radio waves. He was one of my fave tv personalities from the days of Glass House, gruen is a fine show but drive time is where he belongs.

I remember the days of wil at triple m, radio has gone downhill since his departure.
I remember him being hypnotized classic!
This news made me so happy so glad he is back on radio.

I’m sure Charlie Clausen is loving being referred to as ‘Charlotte’ Clausen here…
ouch.
User ID not verified.
Maddy, you’re right!
Atleast they aren’t referring to Charlie as Zac Macguire!
Wish all this was true but Wil has denied it already!
User ID not verified.
Is charlotte clausen the same as Charlie clausen? I’ve not heard of her
But I’m sure it would be a good mix, Aussie radio needs it right now to stay alive radio has never been so boring seriously there is more news reporting on radio antics and radio personalities tON THE RADIO than there is quality content!

Heard on the worksite this morning something about wilsy and azza. All the boys seemed to like the idea but it sounded a bit like a joke on an interview. Unfortunately don’t think it’s happening!
Plus it’s not on that Wikipedia site yet so it’s not official

Umm pretty sure I heard wil is thinking of getting into the American market and is moving there … So don’t think he would be doing aus radio – unless he did what kyle did and phone in each day via Internet but that just beckons poor radio quality doesn’t it? I find it heRd to believe.. I think this is not true…

I recall reading a jetstar magazine earlier this year and Wil was a feature. Radio was never mentioned and wasn’t on the horizon as he wanted to spend more time in Byron and america to do stand up. Wishful thinking but I just checked his facebook page and he says is BS!

My mate called token his management company and they said ‘no comment’
I reckons he should just do it. Too many clown fish in the industry

If any of wils fellow fans are reading the above it is mostly nonsense!
It has recently surfaced that wil is signing a channel seven contract to do some shows or tv series on channel seven. I hope he can or is allowed to stay on abc to do gruen…

@Mel if you listen to Wil Anderson’s Podcast TOFOP you would know it is a one off special at Montreal Comedy Festival
User ID not verified.
…On channel 7
User ID not verified.
I saw on channel 7 recently the show you are talking about with Wil Anderson
@squire-man you are correct it was a one off special before he goes back to the ABC.
It was a hilarious special from he Just for laughs comedy festival titled ‘the aussies’ he hosts and a great array of aussie talent is shown – which is good to see.
ANyone a fan of wil can catch him at seven catch up tv online and see him host the show which is a two parter here:

@squire. Charlotte clausen is the best I like here on jjj less restrictions should be a good match
User ID not verified.
@martin no such person as Charlotte. I believe Charlie is short for Charles
He is Wil ANdersons mate and one half of the genius behind TOFOP, however had to stop recording because he is on Home and Away … a ‘family show’ and do not like him talking of ‘ prison r@pe and time travel!!!’
He is a good bloke and grows a mean beard, definately not to be confused with ‘Charlotte’ clausen!

Great podcast, would be great if Wilosophy was a radio show as the pair have a great dynamic that works. very charming pair they make and very interesting.
Wil is turning into a new age Andrew Denton. Seriously he has a great interviewing style and wouldn’t be surprised in a few years time he had an enough rope style show him self
